Most guests found the lodge to be very clean, with only a few isolated comments about cleanliness issues such as a dirty shower and the need to rewash some utensils. Overall, the standard of cleanliness seems to be high.
The location is highly praised for its tranquility, beautiful woodland setting, and proximity to local attractions and activities. It offers a peaceful retreat with easy access to walks and wildlife, contributing to a very positive experience.
The lodge is generally considered comfortable, with well-furnished rooms and good heating. However, some guests mentioned issues with noisy appliances and a creaky bed, which slightly impacted the comfort level.
Facilities are well-regarded, especially the kitchen and bike storage. Some guests noted a lack of mirrors, kitchen equipment, and issues with appliances like the dishwasher and hob. Maintenance concerns, such as a broken hob and noisy heat pump, were also mentioned.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to score this category. However, the provision of facilities for activity holidays suggests some level of thoughtfulness.

The accommodation is outstanding and superb value for money. We hiked, paddled boarded, enjoyed the Loch Morlich beach, made dens, walked up a waterfall ⦠and ate some amazing food (including toasting marshmallows on the open outdoor fire)! We canât wait to come back!

Very comfortable and spacious and well looked after. Particularly like that the lodges are well-insulated from each other so stays quiet. Slightly quirkily equipped (lots of casserole dishes but no frying pan or bread knife, for instance) and the lock button on the induction hob didn't work properly so it often took 20 goes to get the hobs to work (dodgy connection somewhere?). Still an excellent place to stay though.
